Episode Synopsis

Everyone loves a good transformation story, but I don't think we (me included) do the best job of telling them. Some of the coolest times of my life have been when those around me have lost weight, turned their careers around, and got fit. Most of their stories are summarized in numbers and credentials, but those facts and figures don't do the transformations justice.

Numbers allow us to track progress, but they aren't the reason the progress matters. Real progress is seen in little moments throughout the journey. It's the benefits that slowly accumulate into a major change. Focusing on the benefits rather than the numbers makes us more likely to reap the rewards of a transformation.
